Not if most of us keep claiming laziness and buy stuff that clearly say "made in China", when there are alternatives readily available either online or next to it in the aisle.

Somewhat US centric, but you may not know that the top trading partner of the US is no longer China. Also labor costs in china have gone up so "made in china" no longer carries a price premium for "lazy" consumers.

This isn't an issue that's going to be addressed by trying to change consumer behavior.

Agreed. I made a personal decision years ago, never to buy any Made in China products. There’s always better alternatives, of higher quality and also by supporting local manufacturers.
